In corporate environment there are scenario where endpoint machine needs to perform patching for their drivers, application, OS and sync-ing / upload files to corporate sanctioned file storage. How do we overcome the Advanced File Scanning’s DLP, File Profile and Threat Protection without editing the fall back behavior if we deem the destination or the source is sanctioned  ? I explore the options to use real time policy’s file constraints to overcome, however it seems to be not working just wish to check anyone have any idea to overcome it?

 

Thanks in advance!

if the destination is considered sanctioned, you may bypass Advanced File Scanning using one of the following approaches:

  1. Steering Exception: Configure a steering exception and add the relevant domains so that traffic to those sanctioned domains is bypassed from the steering.

  2. SSL Do Not Decrypt: Create a Destination Profile for the sanctioned domains and configure the SSL Decryption policy to “Do Not Decrypt.”
